THE KEELY MOTOR.
The Stockholders of the Wonderful
Power Hold their Annual Meeting

PHILADELPHIA. Dec. A.
The first annual meeting of the stockhold-
ers of the keely Motor Company, since 1883,
was held today and attended by about seven
tv-fve stockholders, representing nearly TO-
600 shares.
The report of the directors was accepted.
1t saws the directors are more than ever sat
istied that the enterprise is absolutely based
upon the new motive power and that Mr.
Keelv has underestimated the many particu-
lars and the time necessary to the compile
ton of the work. Notwithstanding the doubt
expressed in some quarters, the board still
has high hopes of steady and in fact wonder
full progress having been made in keely's
work, that the chief difficulties are removed
and they are now in sight of the results
The report of keely, in response to the re-
quest of the stockholders for statement of
the progress made, was read He says that
since March 10 the phenomena has unfolded
to him the opening of a new field of expert
ment as result of which he has become pos
sessed of new and important discovery
Hereafter operations will be conducted with
out either vaporic or etheric forces which
have heretofore played such an important
part in the exhibitions.
What name he will give the new form of
force he does not know, but the basis of it
all is vibratory sympathy. 1t may be diyid-
ed into negative and sympathetic attraction,
these two forms of force being agents of
each other.
He had no doubt that sooner or later he
would be able to produce engines of varying
capacity, so small as to run a sewing ma
chine and so large and powerful to plough
the sea as the motive force in the great
ships His ultimate success will be greater
than even his most sanguine advocate ever
predicted.
The report was accepted and directors were
elected.
